Spyclists: how Hitler Youths cycling tours caused panic in prewar BritainNazis bid to forge ties with Lord Baden-Powell and boy scouts rang government alarm bells
Congrats to Portland, Oregon
The Portland City Council unanimously approved the nation's most ambitious bike-projects initiative Thursday, with Mayor Sam Adams promising to submit a $20 million “kickstart” funding plan within 30 days.
The goal of the $600 million 2030 Portland Bicycle Plan is that 25 percent of trips in the city be by bike in 20 years.
At the heart of the proposal is nearly 700 miles of new bikeways that would make up a “safer and more comfortable” two-wheeled urban network for new cyclists.

A.N.T film
A great film about custom bicycle builder Mike Flanigan. Mike was the first custom bicycle builder I ever contacted. I met him personally in Indianapolis at NAHBS last year. He’s a wonderful guy with a great eye for everyday bikes.
